teháma Carmel Avg low in May: 49˚F One of the most private residential golf communities in the world (as it says), this Clint Eastwood-founded enclave is only allowing 90 families on its 2,000 acres. Incredible views, a Jim Morrish golf course, hilltop Clubhouse and extensive Social Fitness Center are all minutes from the organic produce farms, galleries and amazing lifestyle opportunities around Carmel. Eastwood insisted the community blend into the natural landscape, so don’t look for dissonance here. Just pure, crisp, California, and that includes cool evenings and star-filled skies. tehama-carmel.com Lahontan GoLf cLub Truckee Avg low in May: 32˚F Located just 11 miles from Lake Tahoe, this private gated golf club community (the only one in the area) offers both a Tom Weiskopf designed 18-hole and nine-hole par-3 course on its 910-acre site.
